The Office
7 May, 2008 at 10:09 am (Church)
If you don’t already know, our church office is a portable building located at 10 Pelham Rd, Knightsbridge. It is the hub of operations for Northwest Baptist Church. In the office, we prepare messages and material, print tracts and flyers, collate and fold lessons and newsletters, strategise, plan, pray, study, file, talk, enjoy a cup of tea, read the Bible, etc.
Tuesdays and Thursdays are big days in the office. We have several volunteers that come in on those days to help with the work of the office. David Laverty helps out Tuesdays and Thursday and puts in some long hours doing the bulletin, congregational songs, special music, prayer sheets, making phone calls, planning youth activites, printing and preparing literature, and about 1000 other things that need to happen to keep the ministry of our church going. Sylvia Borland helps out on Thursdays with the church books, birthday cards, filing, making phone calls, organisation, church calendar, etc. Also, we have other volunteers like Tracey, Mark, and Kyle who stop by periodically to give us a hand.
Yesterday was big day. The office was a buzz of activity as we prepare for our youth rally and Bible conference coming up. THANKS VOLUNTEERS FOR ALL YOUR WORK! You make it much easier for me to give myself to the ministry of the Word and prayer. Because of your work, I have Wednesdays and Fridays as quiet days to study and prepare for the church services.
I praise God for our office. It is temporary solution until we get a more permanent facility, but it is working for now.
